Installed a "Tesla Style" infotainment in my 2022 Silverado LTD. This one is from Aucar. It's an Android 13 based operating system that retains the factory Chevy MyLink/GMC IntelliLink, but addes the Android OS features. Pretty unique and cool, but it comes with a hefty price tag. Aucar sent me this unit to install, test and review. Below is my in-depth installation video with feature review at the end. Enjoy

Don's Life on YouTube also got one of these sent to him and installed in his 21 Sierra AT4. So far he only did an install video and is going to be posting an actual review and use of it. They claim it works in place of the 7" IOR radios. I'm not sure how the climate controls work since they are very different in the Work Truck and Custom Trims vs the LT and above dual zone controls.

Yes I saw his video too. I go in depth on the features of the unit near the end of my video you can zoom ahead to 27 minute mark to see it in action.

That big screen is not for me there is way too much going on. Unless it dims down at night it has to light up the inside of the cab. To big and looks out of place.

It does dim, and there is a night mode that darkens the interface.

My unit is shipping now, I'll share my experience once received. For us that want an updated look to our interior it seems like a great upgrade. With any new technology I'm sure there will be quirks.

There are 2 seperate versions. One for manual ac controls /7" and one for automatic ac control /8"

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Jus Cruisin · Posted

      I was the GM of a Lincoln Mercury dealership back in the 80's. The service lot was always full with "broken" ones. Plenty of transmissions, power windows and a/c repairs. The only one I'd consider owning would be the Marauder at this point and it certainly wouldn't be a daily driver.  My 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate is my "Lincoln Town Car" in my retirement. I want all the "stuff". Big infotainment screens, one touch power windows, Supercruise (I won't buy another vehicle without it), hands free pretty much everything. I'm going to swap my current truck for a 2027 Yukon Denali Ultimate so I can have the air suspension and surround vision recording along with all the other "stuff".

      The Denali Ultimate's grille is tinted, but the "regular' Denali has a bright chrome grille like the current models.

      Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.

      Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
